Re: Nokia Lumia Series Smartphones Discussions and Experiences
Absolutely i mean thats the basics one would be looking for in their handset as of today with the range and features available in market from lot many manufacturers.This is my personal view taking nokia that this small little things does puts off many prospective buyers from nokia again.Even this is the attitude i saw with many stores while checking out handset for my wife, that nokia yes they got what market is looking for but yet not there with such things.
My old video files in samsung wave which can play in any damn given handset even does on my old nokia x2 handset but does not work on Lumia 720, i mean this small things puts you off for the other superb things nokia gave in.
I hope and wish they do solve this thing in better and sooner way.
To be honest actually Microsoft is to be blamed here , since the software devlopment is their job .
Like you I was using a samsung wave 2 .
I never used any nokia phone ever before in my life , my first nokia phone was lumia 800 .
it makes sense buying nokia phones because they are the ones who offer the best windows experience along with their free usefull apps. Which samsung and htc dosent do , but their phones too are equally well built .
I first came across the windows phone in Singapore in a electronic store and I liked the interface a lot it was fresh and new , guess what I bought a htc trophy phone in London ( windows was not even launched in India and the store too ) the phone dint even have copy and paste can you imagine ? But then iam not a power user like nitink so I was ok with it .
Then came 7.2 update , then 7.5 mango then 7.8 and now the 8 .
Microsoft does many things in a unique way and does that beautifully and like you said also misses on some core functions like file manager and volume of apps .
Some people want a notification center , but the whole idea of windows phone is " glance " means whichever core apps you find imp put the tiles of those apps on the start screen and they will dynamically in real time give you updates like notifications .
Windows is not perfect or the most advanced system , but so is android and iOS too .
You please go to nokia store and ask them about the nokia music thing , iam sure it is some small problem which maybe we are not understanding well to solve it . And ask your other queries also which sometimes iam not able to understand them . Maybe they have some solution to that too .
